  For cooking (simmering) at temperatures of 95°C or above (200°F), the simmering basket should always be used instead of the TM6 measuring cup, as the TM6 measuring cup fits tightly in the lid. The simmering basket rests loosely on top, is steam-permeable, and also prevents food spatter from the mixing bowl.

  Please note that the TM5 mixing bowl has a larger capacity than the TM31 (capacity of 2.2 liters instead of 2.0 liters for TM 31). Recipes for the Thermomix TM5 may not be cooked with a Thermomix TM31 for safety reasons without adjusting the quantities. Risk of scalding by spraying of hot liquids: Do not exceed the maximum filling quantity and observe the filling level markings of the mixing bowl!

Recipe's preparation

HOMEMADE CHILLI OIL

Add star anise, cinnamon stick, bay leaves, peppercorns and cardamom pods to mixing bowl. Dry roast 5 mins, varoma, reverse, speed 2, MC off.

Add oil and cook 8 mins, 100 degrees, speed 2.

Place the chilli powder and salt in a heat proof jar or bowl. Strain the oil over the chilli mixture. Add the bay leaves cinnamon stick and star anise back into the oil mixture and gently stir.

Allow to cool before storing in an airtight jar.

SPICY RED SAUCE

Add coriander, spring onion and garlic. Chop 3 seconds, speed 7.

Add all remaining ingredients. Mix 5 seconds speed 3.5. Set aside in bowl. Rinse mixing bowl.

WONTONS

Add spring onions and ginger. Chop 3 seconds, speed 7. Repeat if necessary until finely chopped.

Add mince, pepper, water, stock paste, cornflour, egg and salt. Mix 10 seconds speed 6 or until silky and smooth.

Hold a wonton wrapper in the palm of your hand so that one corner is facing you. Place about half a teaspoon of the filling into the bottom corner of the wonton wrapper. Fold the bottom corner of the wrapper over the filling and continue rolling up the wrapper until you nearly reach the opposite corner (leave a little of the point of the opposite corner over hanging). Now lock the filling inside the wrapper by pushing both open ends of the wrapper together. Brush ends with a little water and then bring the ends together and press firmly to secure. Place onto a Thermomat or tray lined with baking paper.

No need to clean the bowl. Add 500g hot water to the mixing bowl.

Place wontons in varoma dish and tray. Steam 10 mins, Varoma, speed 2.

Place into serving bowl and generously spoon over the spicy red sauce and sprinkle with sesame seeds if using.
